Awake NY Celebrates Mexico's Club América Ahead of Red Bulls Match

Mexico's Club América is coming to the New York Tri-State Area to play against New York Red Bulls on Saturday, Nov. 14. To commemorate to occasion and celebrate one of Latin America's most wide-reaching fan bases, Awake NY have teamed up with the club for a three-piece capsule and community event.

Angelo Baque has been vocal about his admiration for Mexico City, the city "Las Águilas" call home. His native Queens borough also enjoys a large population of Mexican immigrants and their descendants, which will surely turn out to Sports Illustrated Stadium for the Club Friendlies.

Awake NY has kept its designs for the collaboration simple, relying on Club América's signature motto, "Grandes de Corazón," which speaks to the bond and passion shared by the Liga MX side and its supporters. Classic club crests for "El Amé" and the team's azulcrema identity appear across the project's co-branded hooded sweater, graphic t-shirt, and hat.

In July 2025, the Mexico City-based football club switched from Nike to adidas as its exclusive gear manufacturer. Had Las Águilas still been with the Swoosh, it's possible Baque and his Awake NY team would've gotten a chance to work on on-pitch gear for the team. (El Amé's national rival, Chivas de Guadalajara, is currently with Nike.)

To celebrate the launch of its collaborative capsule, Awake NY will host "A NIGHT OF MUSIC, FOOD, PRIZES AND SURPRISE GUESTS" on Friday, Nov. 13, at its flagship store (62 Orchard St.) from 6–9 p.m. EST. It's possible that figures from Guillermo Almada's squad will make appearances at the event.

Tickets to Saturday's match will also be raffled off during the evening.
